Sound Off: Dec. 4

"WHITE FRIDAY" — What's going to be next? Are we going to ban the playing of the song "White Christmas" on the radio because it's insensitive? I tell you, I'm not a Trump supporter, but I can understand where his support is coming from with his opposition to this insane political correctness. It's driving this country into the ground.

"WHITE FRIDAY" — So Black Friday is not racist but White Friday is? I don't think I have read anything so dumb in forever.

PLANNED PARENTHOOD — Here we go again. The president of Planned Parenthood wants to blame Republican rhetoric for the tragedy in Colorado. I don't guess she wants you to extrapolate a little further and say, "Maybe the selling of body parts had something to do with this nut's behavior."

FOREIGN POLICY — For the person who wrote Obama pulled us out of Iraq too soon, we should have never been in Iraq at all. That was a Bush mistake.

TRADE PACT — Good article by Algernon D’Ammassa on the Trans-Pacific Partnership. Obama is pushing really hard for it and it shows what most of us knew about Obama all along, he is just a hypocrite is in bed with big corporations.

PLANNED PARENTHOOD — That whirring sound you hear is all the Republican presidential candidates backpedaling away from all their anti-Planned Parent rhetoric after this shooting in Colorado.

REFUGEES — I'd chuckle, if it weren't so serious, at people offering their homes to Syrian refugees. Having lived under Sharia Law while working two years in Saudi Arabia, I can tell you with certainty devout Muslims will not, cannot replace Sharia Law with the Constitution, and women are the ones who suffer the most.

COUNTRY MUSIC FEST — If the Country Music Festival is to promote downtown, then why are you thinking of having it at Field of Dreams? Either do something to speed up the construction or figure out a plan B and have it downtown.

PUZZLES — I have done Asimov's quizzes for years, and they are no longer fun. I don't know who is writing them, but they are terrible. The average person cannot get any of these answers.

COUNTY TREASURER — Elected officials need to be held accountable for their actions. Why are we still paying David Gutierrez, who has broken every oath. Character counts huh? Take your own advice, Mr. Gutierrez!

COUNTY — Seems like the commissioners of Doña Ana County proved once again there is retaliation going on. Trying to defend the HR Department only proves the commissioners approve the horrible misconduct of the county manager and HR Department.

PRESIDENT — It's really amazing to watch candidate Obama of "Sí, se puede" fame, turn into a president who is running the country with a "No, we can't" foreign and immigration policy.

AGGIE BASKETBALL — In light of continuing violence around the world, is it civilized to have our pseudo cowboy mascot dismember competitors' mascots, then lynch them at half-court? The basketball audience, which includes many children, is uncomfortable and completely unresponsive, so why continue this primitive practice?

VETERANS — Why are there so many people pandering for homeless veterans? I thought Mayor Ken and Community of Hope told us there was no longer a homeless veteran in Las Cruces. Someone is lying or there are politics involved … oops, same thing.
